Very nice and very detailed motorbike model - Yamaha YZR M1

This is a very detailed motorbike model of the famous racing bike 990cc Yamaha YZR M1. Even the chain has to be put together link by link. I am not sure if the metal kit is an improvement of the original Tamiya plastic model or what as they sometime show both the plastic and metal parts. Too bad I cannot read the Japanese comments. I have not put a plane, car or bike model kit together since my teenager age looooonnnng ago but this kit sure makes me feel like getting young again. Any mechanic and or bike lover will appreciate the detail put into this kit. It takes some time for all the pics to load so be patient.

Oh my god that would take an INSANE amount of time to build! If you showed me just the completed pictures, I would believe it was just a regular bike, full sized.

Any more detail, and it could be a fully functional, operational model, that runs!
